About this event
Some stories are just better to tell through song.
Queer Voices in the Round brings together extraordinary LGBTQIA2+ singer-songwriters for an intimate evening of original music, storytelling, and connection. Taking turns “in the round,” each artist shares songs they’ve written, the stories behind them, and the lived experiences that shaped them, creating an event that is as heartfelt as it is unforgettable.
Featuring acclaimed artists Jack Pine (Ottawa), Noah Malcolm (PEI), and Mattie Comeau (Mi'kmaw, New Brunswick), this one-of-a-kind performance celebrates queer voices, identity, and the transformative power of music. Blending folk, pop, Indigenous storytelling, and deeply personal songwriting, each performer offers a unique perspective while inviting audiences into a shared space of honesty, laughter, and belonging.
Whether you’re drawn to soaring melodies, thoughtful lyrics, or the magic that happens when artists share a stage together, Queer Voices in the Round promises an evening of authenticity, vulnerability, and exceptional musicianship.
